that's the style . 25 to 35 series tires are the norm when buying wheels and lowering a vehicle . If that's not your style keep it stock .

It's the style with the 430. The 460 with 20 or 22 inch looks a lot better in regards to the gaps at the wheel wells.

Those Work Gnosis look great on your car. This is the first time I've seen these on a Lexus.

I just bought my LS and im researching ride height and wheel specs to achieve a nice stance that isnt ridiculously slammed and overly cambered. How much camber did you have to run in order To fit without rubbing since your fenders arent modded?
And did you have to do any other mods (suspension wise)

I rolled the fenders. Stock camber.. and no rubbing. ..pokes and stanced perfect for me.didnt want to cut nothing , I think it is the best offset and tire combo with no worries ..good luck. ..

You are def right about that, that fitment is perfect. Ill be looking for a set of wheels with similar specs soon. Researching coilovers as well, trying to decide between Fortune autos and BCs, also looking for a deal on whatever set shows up first. So much money to spend already lol
